City VS small town



Nowadays there is no big difference between living in a small town or village and living in a big city, but they have a few small differences. I will write about the similarities and differences between living in a small town and village and living in a big city. 
There are several similarities between them. The first one is that both of them have streets so you can drive your car and go anywhere and you can move from the town to the city. The second one is that both of them have facilities like schools, shops, banks and hospitals. Another one is that both of them have big villas and apartments so if you live in a small town or a big city you can find the same quality of homes.
Although they have several similarities they also have differences. The first one is that the village is quiet so you can sleep and relax but in the city you can sleep but you can’t relax, because of the noise. Another important one is that there are skyscrapers in the city but in the town or village they have small buildings. Another difference is that cities have shopping malls so you can find everything you want but if you live in a village it is more difficult.
All in all, in my opinion I prefer living in the town or village because it is quiet, peaceful and it has facilities like the big cities.

UAE 40 years and now



The UAE  40 years ago was so empty  because it was a desert, but  nowadays the UAE is different , It is famous for oil and it has many cities like Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Al Ain, but still it has some similar things. So in this essay I wall write about the similarities and differences.

     There are some similarities between the UAE  40 years ago and the UAE nowadays.The first is that both of them have the same weather; it is hot, dry and sunny so you can’t walk in the street in summer, so you start searching for shade. Another similarity is that they have the same language, religion and traditions which are Arabic language, Islam and the same clothes and food.

 Although there is some similarities there are many differences between the UAE  40 years ago and the UAE nowadays. One of them is the big cities; nowadays it has many facilities like schools, hospitals, banks and shops, but   40 years ago it didn’t had big cities, it had a large area of sand  . Another one is that in the past the UAE had clean weather because it didn’t have cars like these days.
However, the differences are more than the similarities, but I like the UAE nowadays because it is comfortable and easy; some people like my grandfather  will disagree with me because they love the desert.
